Bookstore Weirdness
This story saddened and amused me at the same time:

The funny line is “the Coop considers that information the Coop’s intellectual property.”
More evidence of how twisted a perversion this concept of ‘intellectual property’ has become. People just want to call anything and everything ‘intellectual property’ these days. It’s so convenient. You’re dong something I don’t like.Oh you must be infringing upon my intellectual property rights. Since the term barely means anything at all, you can get away with saying such things.
